Videgames characters and names

Rei · May 10th, 2002, 02:38 PM

Would you name your children after a videogame's character? This question may sound silly, but some of our parents (not my case...) picked a name because they liked a character from a movie, or a book. So, would it be the same for a character from videogames?
Which name from videogames would you probably choose for your son/daughter?

That's a pretty 'tuff question, but for some reason I just love the name Chrono, some weird obsession with the game I guess o-0;

IcyMourdor · May 10th, 2002, 08:26 PM

Well, some names are already real. Aerith/Aeris and Zidane are real people.

If I was going to do that i would have:

BOY: Auron
GIRL: Rikku

I like the sound of those names. I bet my wife (whoever that may be in the future) would never allow it.

happy_doughnut · May 10th, 2002, 10:07 PM

That's a very interesting question! Let's see. Hmm...

Boy: Auron
Girl: Rydia

I really like those two names. I might even actually name my children that IF I get married that is

Boy: Cid, Vincent (but then again, those are also just some regular names) and quite possibly Kain

Girl: I'm not sure just yet.

Sword 4 Hire · May 11th, 2002, 11:24 AM

Boy: Seifer
Girl:.......well my wife can come up with a girls name

Hylas · May 15th, 2002, 05:28 PM

That's a weird question Rei. I don't think I like so much any videogames character's name...I'd probably find some cool one to name a pet, but not a children. I don't even know if I want to have children to name them

I think Aeris is a nice name for a girl, and Ashley for a boy. But you know, I live in a country where it's German to be the main language, not English, so I don't think these ones could be good choices

Beretta55 · May 18th, 2002, 11:45 PM

uh i would name the boy dante from devil may cry and a girl i would name her tifa from final fantasy 7.

inamaize · May 19th, 2002, 12:34 AM

hmm..

BOY: james parker. (parker comes from red faction, to be used as a second name)

GIRL: brooke, or brooklyn. (not from any games i know of tho).. but if it had to be a game.. umm jill of the jungle?

Yuna · May 19th, 2002, 05:50 AM

What a weird topic...me likes.

Boy: I don't know...oh wait, Zell
Girl: Yuna or Rinoa sound nice, and they are both real names

x157anz · May 19th, 2002, 06:28 AM

I would give mine a normal english name.

Boy- Mike, mark , john , jule , andrew , i would probably call it Macca

i like that name

Girl- Laura , Louise , Joanne , Rachel , my best would probably be Luarna

If i gave it some silly name it may get bullyd at school

jenova_jeb · May 19th, 2002, 08:01 AM

I love strange names. I think the regular ones these days are getting pretty boring.

I'd like to use Aeris and Rikku for a girl, and probably Squall and Serge for a guy.

Uchiha Sasuke · May 19th, 2002, 09:19 PM

For me it will be character from the RE universe.

Boy-Chris (after chris redfield)
Girl-Claire (after claire redfield)
